WARNING:
Use the safety interlock facility within danger areas
.
Any area where personnel may come into direct contact with high power RF, or be exposed to non-ionising ra-
diation, should be designated as a danger area. A barrier should be established around any such area, with a
switch in place when the barrier is broken. This switch can be linked to the safety interlock BNC connector on
the rear of the amplifier, thus disabling the amplifier when the barrier is breached.
It is the responsibility of the operator to ensure that the working environment is safe. The ‘safety interlock’ fea-
ture is provided to assist the purchaser in establishing such a ‘safe’ area.
